        "text": "Deciding between repair and replacement depends on the severity of the damage, the handrail's age, and its overall structural integrity. Minor issues like loose connections or surface damage are typically more cost-effective to repair. However, if the handrail has significant structural rot, extensive rust, or multiple broken components, replacement might be the safer and more economical long-term solution. We can help assess the best approach for your situation.",
